Wellington, Fl- March 20, 2005. The Zada Enterprises, LLC WEF Dressage Classic CDI never missed a beat as the show wrapped up today with 5 hours of musical freestyle performances that served as the grand finale for four days of fantastic dressage. Spectators lingered after the last musical freestyle of the afternoon as if hoping for an encore, but today's performances would be hard to repeat. In the biggie, the $2500 CDI Grand Prix Freestyle, six-time Olympian, Robert Dover held on to the top spot, riding Jane Forbes Clark's FBW Kennedy to a winning score of 76.950%. "He was a little tense," explained Dover, "He made those little mistakes at the beginning and end of the ride. But he is getting real confident and we had a great Grand Prix earlier this week and overall we have had a really great, great season."

Second in the Grand Prix Freestyle went to Leslie Morse and TipTop 962 who had the spectator's cheering before she completed her final salute. Morse and her dynamic stallion finished just shy of Dover with a score of 76.450%. Third place went to another of the show's superstars, Ashley Holzer on Imperioso with a score of 74.525%. Fourth went to Canadian teammate, Shannon Dueck on Korona with a score of 73.225%, followed by still another Canadian team member, Evi Strasser on Quantum Tyme with a score of 73.050%.

This time their score left them a little breathing room, with Leslie Morse and Kingston finishing second with a score of 72.542% and Morse on Tip Top 962 finishing third with a score of 69.333%.

Other Grand Prix stars over the weekend included Michael Barisone and Neruda who won the $1250 CDI Grand Prix Special with a score of 68.960%.

The pair won the $1000 Grand Prix Special with a score of 66.200% and $1000 Open Grand Prix with a score of 65.000%. Morelli was very pleased with the wins as this is BeSe's first season competing at the Grand Prix.

The Intermediaire division of the WEF Dressage Classic was also very competitive and the best of the best vied for the top placings. Leading the pack was Olympian, Michelle Gibson riding Elite European Sport Horse's, Lex Barker to a big win in the $1000 CDI Intermediaire-I with a score of 71.300%.
